Down side of Contingency?

Good Moning LL,

 

It has always concerned me, in a nagging sort of way, that when a firm like DM takes on the task of prosecuting EDIG patents on a contingency basis that EDIG might not have the control or insight into exactly what DM is thinking or up to.

It seems to me if a firm is hired and payed, the plaintiff can have and demand meetings to measure progress, attitude, etc. Wheras on contingency the law firm is its own master and merely comes to EDIG for back-up. Leaving EDIG more out of the loop??

Could you comment on this please.

Thanks..TK
